Hibs 0 - 3 Rangers (Kent 4; Aribo 8; Defoe 53)


Recommended Posts

That's was a great performance and result last night.  It's a pity that Aberdeen will do their usual and cave in to the other mob this weekend.  The ONLY team willing and capable of taking points of them is us.  Bring on the 29th.  This narrower approach (to accommodate Aribo) looks really dangerous.  Aribo just needs to sharpen up and remember that he doesn't have as much time on the ball as he wants sometimes.  When he does, he will be unstoppable because he's got all the skill.

 

Kent and Defoe were excellent last night though.  Although Defoe didn't appear to do much, his movement was causing chaos in their defence.  He's such an intelligent player and his runs are timed to perfection.

 

Jack and Barisic ran the show last night though.  They both looked absolute class.  I can't believe we've gone from thinking we had a problem at left back to finding that we've got a world class player in that position.  There aren't many better players to watch than Barisic.  He's a better version of Hutton, who was also excellent at driving forward and creating chances.

 

Loving the football we are playing, and loving the character we've shown.  All the pressure is on us for the old firm game but if we keep playing like this, even another wonder performance by their keeper won't stop us from hammering that lot.

Stevie G is bringing a quiet confidence to these problematic games.

 

It's our tempo, Hibs, 'Well, ra Sellik, and Young Boys could not live with it. Of course, we have to find a better way of managing the tempo, look at the last twenty minutes against Young Boys. We did not play Hibs at Easter Road, we played with them on their own midden. Ryan Porteous was the epitome of expected frustration.

  • Rousseau changed the title to Hibs 0 - 3 Rangers (Kent 4; Aribo 8; Defoe 53)

We are playing some great football at the moment but we need to be more clinical.  We dither too often in the final third.

 

Can't fault anyone last night though - everyone who stepped onto the park in a red shirt played well.  

 

The support sounded great too - it's nights like that that make me miss going to away games.
